ABSTRACT
This study attempted to investigate the relationship between symptoms of anxiety and depression, examining interactions, severity and frequency of the two conditions and how they affect the lives of young adults in the Delhi NCR area. 100 individuals of ages between 20 to 30, from the Delhi NCR region constituted the sample. Using Google Forms, the Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale (HAM-A) and the Beck Depression Inventory-II (BDI-II) were used to assess the participants’ levels of anxiety and depression. The findings showed a substantial relationship between anxiety and depression symptoms, with those who reported higher levels of anxiety symptoms also exhibiting higher levels of depression symptoms.
